Chasing 165, Rahul and Mayank Agarwal added 91 runs for the opening stand, until Shahbaz Ahmed dismissed the former. PBKS then kept losing wickets and fell short of the target.

Rahul completed the milestone of 500 runs in IPL 2021 during the match against his former franchise, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. 

Pollard became the first player to have over 10,000 runs and 300 wickets to his name in the T20 format.

The pair stitched a 120-run opening stand in 71 balls to provide a perfect start to Punjab's chase of 186

Rahul achieved the feat during the IPL 2021 match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Dubai International Stadium. 

Gavaskar showered praise on the Karnataka batsman for his quality of leadership shown in the IPL. Rahul is the captain of Punjab Kings.

India's top-ranked bowler in the list is veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar at 12th while injured off-spinner Washington Sundar is the other in the top-20 at 18th place.

The incident occurred in the 34th over of India's second innings on Saturday. Rahul scored a patient 46 off 101 balls before being caught off James Anderson.

Ollie Pope top-scored with 81 off 159 balls while Chris Woakes hit a quickfire 50 to bolster the England total.

In two Tests played so far, Rahul has scored 244 runs at an average of 61.00, hitting a century (129) and a half-century.

KL Rahul, who scored a superb 129, made a significant gain, jumping 19 spots to take the 37th spot.

Just after India had declared their innings post-lunch in the second Test against England at Lords, skipper Virat Kohli went into a huddle and gave a pep-talk, the details of which were revealed by KL Rahul.

The on-field altercations started after Mark Wood dished out short-pitched stuff targeting Jasprit Bumrah's head, resulting in an argument with England skipper Joe Root and Jimmy Anderson. 

Rahul, who notched up a magnificent 129 in the first innings, was fielding at the boundary in the 69th over when the incident took place.

Rahul said he did not carry the baggage of the past. He also does not want to throw away the opportunity to cement his place in the side.

The experienced duo of Pujara and Test vice-captain Rahane have not been at their best of late, averaging in the 20s this year.

Rahul (129) could add only two runs to his overnight score before walking back to the dressing room amid a big applause.

Rohit himself scored an impressive 83 and added 126 runs for the opening stand with Rahul, who ended the first day of the second Test unbeaten on 127.

Rohit was on course for his eighth Test century and a place on the Honours Boards at the home of cricket when Anderson got one to nip back off the seam and go through the right-handed opener's gate.

Rahul, who was initially in the mix as a middle-order option, replaced injured Mayank Agarwal at the top and flaunted his versatility against the red cherry.
